HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVONNE HANNAH!

     Today is the 13th birthday of our beautiful, dramatic, creative, talented, writing, singing, dancing, sewing, piano playing daughter, Evonne Hannah!



 

 

 

This is Evonne's letter to us from camp this summer.  The typical, "How are you? I am fine." Letter is just not Evonne's style.




 

We love you, too, Evonne!

A Field Trip to Remember!

   It has been so long since I posted anything that I had to look up my password!
  Yesterday we went on our 3rd field trip of the year.  We visited a farm with a pumpkin patch and corn maze.


  So we walked, in the pouring rain, through a less than impressive corn maze,



 chose a tiny pumpkin to take home,


                                  

and posed for pictures in the rain with our tiny pumpkins.






But the part the kids will remember most is that our cars got stuck in the muddy parking lot and they got to watch all the parents work together and help each other to get them out!   So I guess you'd call that a successful field trip.




















     There is something to be said for paved parking lots, though!

Jesus, Friend of Sinners by Casting Crowns

Jesus, friend of sinners, we have strayed so far away
We cut down people in your name but the sword was never ours to swing
Jesus, friend of sinners, the truth's become so hard to see
The world is on their way to You but they're tripping over me
Always looking around but never looking up I'm so double minded
A plank eyed saint with dirty hands and a heart divided

Oh Jesus, friend of sinners
Open our eyes to the world at the end of our pointing fingers
Let our hearts be led by mercy
Help us reach with open hearts and open doors
Oh Jesus, friend of sinners, break our hearts for what breaks yours http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9Kcm2OAWNA
